I don't understand the attractionSmaug says: Ricky Gervais. Lesbian pr0n. Going into a crowded bar, purely because it's crowded. All these things seem to be popular with everybody else, but I just can't work out why. What leaves you cold just as much as it turns everyone else on?

I feel the same about..Art.
People like Michaelangelo, Escher, Da Vinci etc created masterpieces, using skills, demonstrating their knowledge of many different mediums that may have taken them years to perfect - be it with a paintbrush, a hammer and chisel, or unlocking the secrets of perspective and composition.
Then some twat shits in an ashtray and puts it on a bird table, and it's sold for millions because it's 'gritty and unique'
Fuck Off.
That bollocks with the artist who received an award for having a room with a light that switched on and off every couple of seconds was simply ludicrous.

but to use that example to suggestthat all artists operating today are substanceless and untalented would be ridiculous hyperbole (and completely untrue).
The same can be applied to the idea that all modern films are rubbish.
